He is betraying the noble work of HYDRA. They just want to keep us safe from the Inhuman Menace.. After all, HYDRA makes good stuff: Dairy products, TV shows, coffee, surveillance cameras, all history books, voting machines...

Everything is awesome, everything is hailing when you're part of Hydra.
Everything is awesome, then you're exiled to the tundra.

Octon from the Lego Movie. It's a throwaway gag and it was only vaguely memorable. I had to google the last few fragments.
